>> in response, a faking-news headline : BJP supporters take vow to stop visiting Goa if AAP wins there; all local women's rights groups respond by declaring full support for AAP as the best way to "relieve Goa from rampant sexual harassment by sex-crazed repressed-at-home male tourists". One group declares, "if the police force here comes under control of a government that is criminal-free and rapist-free, then Goa will soon become India's safest place for women, and so we expect many times more tourism, and much better quality tourism, from all over India and the world once that happens. The loss of predominantly misogynist tourists will actually be a blessing for all of us."

How One School Used Solar Power to Go from Being an Electricity Consumer to Electricity Producer
... Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education (SAICE), Pondicherry, is not only self-reliant in terms of energy but is also sharing the excess it produces with other buildings in the area.
... Thus, after the solar plant was set up, 700 kWh of excess energy was exported back into the power grid during the first month.
... The Ashram already produces its own rice, lentils, vegetable, milk and cooking oil that are needed in the community dining room on a daily basis. This is an added step towards sustainability.
... The entire project cost about Rs. 1 crore and was completely funded by the Ashram itself. But this, according to Dr. Mohanty, is a profitable deal. Because the cost-benefit analysis of the solar power project shows that the capital investment on the project can be recovered roughly in 10 years from the savings in electricity bills.

Aam Aadmi Canteen to Serve Breakfast for Rs. 5 and Lunch for Rs. 10
Delhi Government has started working towards execution of its huge plan to open Aam Aadmi Canteen for Delhi's poor. Aam Aadmi Party is dedicated to its ideology that their Govt. will work for poor citizens as much aas for other citizens. Every citizen pays taxes and getting support from the Govt is their right.
The planning for these canteens started last year itself. Initially around 24 such canteens will be opened where breakfast would cost Rs. 5 and lunch/dinner would cost Rs. 10. These will be opened at places such as Stations, Bus Terminals, etc. Rs. 10 crore were allocate for this. Going forward, Delhi Govt. is planning to open 200 such canteens for Delhi.

Statement on the Homophobic Massacre of LGBTQI Community Members and Allies in Orlando
... In the great ancient religious and ethical traditions of humankind we find the directive: You shall not kill! Or in positive terms: Have respect for life! Let us reflect anew on the consequences of this ancient directive: All people have a right to life, safety, and the free development of personality insofar as they do not injure the rights of others. No one has the right physically to torture, injure, much less kill, any other human being. And no people, no state, no race, no religion has the right to hate, to discriminate against, to "cleanse," to exile, much less to liquidate a "foreign" minority which is different in behavior or holds different beliefs.

Then he bravely declared the City of Madrid TTIP free, to which Assange replied, "you better secede from Spain then." In other words, while cities can represent radical pockets of resistance, a huge amount of power still rests at the state and international levels.

Living Theory researchers have also sought to contribute to the growth and influence of Living Theory research as a social movement.

A journey in learning: My reflective account - by Neema Parekh
... I have used emails written to a friend and also to my mentor over a period of twelve years from 2004‐2016 to represent the emotional side of my learning and my reflections to represent the theories of my learning. Through my journey I wish to illustrate the need for Government teachers in India to become well informed of current practices and theories in education if we wish to understand the needs of our students, meet those needs and know how to create and sustain an atmosphere of care, trust and co-operation. I hope lessons learnt by me can be drawn on by other teachers so that they can make learning an enjoyable, stress-free experience for the children of rural India.

In Venezuela, the Elite Meet to Eat While the Masses Starve
A tiny percentage of the elites remain unaffected by the economic implosion
... The contrast was amplified when reporters from the tabloid approached golfers on one of the club's courses and asked them about the contrast. One of them said, "It's not that we don't care about the poor people. We give a lot to charity." And then, as an afterthought, he added: "Should we stop enjoying ourselves just because the country is burning?"
... The most productive part of the economy, extraction of oil and gas, for years provided the socialists in power with enough money to pay for all manner of social welfare schemes: houses, schools, infrastructure, and government office buildings. But when oil prices dropped, so did Maduro's cash flow.
... Food is so scarce that even the dogs are starving. Government price controls, often set below the cost of production, have left grocery store shelves empty.
... Venezuela's middle class has evaporated, leaving behind the vast majority living day-to-day through scavenging and barter. The elites, on the other hand, continue to live a lavish lifestyle, unaffected by the misery being experienced just a few miles away.

Islamic Speaker Admits: Killing Gays is a Belief Held by 'Moderate Muslims'

...It has also been confirmed that just weeks before Omar Mateen's rampage, Muslim cleric Sheikh Farrokh Sekaleshfar called for gays to be executed during a sermon at an Orlando-area mosque. ... Sekaleshfar also called for homosexuals to be killed "out of compassion".
... With many gay people in America now asserting that they will switch their vote to Trump in light of Saturday night's massacre, it is imperative for the LGBT community to understand that the regressive left has chosen Islam over gay rights.
...During a conference held in May 2013, Qureshi complained that the media often frames views such as "the death penalty for homosexuals" or the subjugation of women as only being held by radical Muslims. ... "I always try to tell them that….these are general views that every Muslim actually has….every Muslim believes in these things," says Qureshi.

5 Reasons to Question the Official Story of the Orlando Shooting
... The FBI literally provided a mentally-ill man they helped plan a terrorist attack together with, an arsenal of deadly weapons – arresting him just before he committed his crime.
... While the right-wing media blames Muslims and the left-wing media blame guns, perhaps it would be more effective if thinking individuals would examine the possibilities that this attack was a false flag incident designed to push an agenda that would benefit those in power in some way or other. Out of this attack we will no doubt see another push for the evisceration of the Second Amendment and other civil liberties as well as increased hype regarding ISIS as a threat to the American way of life and a greater attempt at justification for foreign adventures.

British MP Jo Cox Murdered: Now Comes The Psyop
... "Create a killer? Take someone who's unstable, pump him up with SSRI antidepressants, fill his head full of ideas about violent action, point him in a desired direction, and stand back." (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)
... The man who is arrested, Thomas Mair, is alleged to have shouted "Britain First!" (Brexit) as he killed Cox. However, now witnesses on the scene are saying they heard no such thing.
... Here is the psyop formula:
MP Jo Cox wanted to remain in the EU. Her killer was a "Brexit right-wing crazy" who yelled "Britain First!" as he murdered her. Therefore, all people who want Brexit are right-wing crazies. Therefore, vote to remain in the EU.
This is how you demonize millions of people.
Jo Cox=good=remain in the EU. Her killer=leave the EU=all people who want to leave the EU are killers.
... Dr. Joseph Tarantolo is a psychiatrist in private practice in Washington DC. He is the former president of the Washington chapter of the American Society of Psychoanalytic Physicians. In a 1999 interview with me, Tarantolo stated: "All the SSRIs [including Prozac and Luvox] relieve the patient of feeling. He becomes less empathic, as in `I don't care as much,' which means `It's easier for me to harm you.' If a doctor treats someone who needs a great deal of strength just to think straight, and gives him one of these drugs, that could push him over the edge into violent behavior."

GT200: How London Sold Fake Bomb Detectors and Got People Killed
The UK proves that power and profits come before the lives of even its own allies' soldiers and police
>> An example of what's in store for India with foreign FDI in military sector unleashed
... Considering how humiliation is used by the Western media to portray anyone questioning the West's various narratives as "paranoid" or as "conspiracy theorists," one can only imagine the abuse one would be subjected to had they accused British ambassadors and British military sales support teams of selling what is essentially and empty plastic case with a disconnected radio antenna on it as a "bomb detector."
... Yet that is exactly what the British government did.
... Giles Paxman, then Britain's ambassador to Mexico, wrote to senior officials in the embattled state government to introduce the wares of Kent entrepreneur Gary Bolton, who was selling the GT200, a handheld detector supposedly capable of identifying drugs or explosives at up to 700 metres. Unbeknown to the ambassador, it used nothing more than a car aerial attached to a hollow plastic grip and did not work.
... Ambassador Paxman would, according to the Guardian, emphasize "the excellence of the UK's security industry." He would arrange meetings with officials across the country with the maker of the GT200, and is precisely why an otherwise unknown criminal was able to peddle his fake devices globally to the UK's various allies.
... The Independent would reveal that the device cost a mere 2 GBP to make, but was sold for as much as 15,000 GBP each.

BREXIT!!
http://www.veteranstoday.com/2016/06/24/brexit-nwo/
BREXIT victory shocks NWO – were "conspiracy theories" responsible?
... Prior to the emotion-stirring killing of "heroic anti-Brexit icon" Jo Cox by an apparent Brexit supporter, the polls showed the pro-Brexit side was significantly ahead. In the wake of the Cox murder, a huge swing occurred, putting anti-Brexit forces ahead 52-48% in polls taken on the eve of the vote. The elites who had arranged the false flag were presumably cackling and rubbing their hands in glee. What could possibly go wrong now?
... What went wrong was "conspiracy theories."
... Believing in "conspiracy theories," indeed giving them any credence at all, is wildly politically-incorrect, if not downright heretical, according to establishment ideology. So the very large number of voters who found the timing and style of the Cox murder suspicious would never admit that in a formal setting; on the contrary, when contacted by a pollster, they would be even more likely than before to misstate their intentions in the direction of pretending to be anti-Brexit.
... But in the privacy of the voting booth, people often go with their real thoughts and emotions.

Aam Aadmi Canteen to Serve Breakfast for Rs. 5 and Lunch for Rs. 10
Delhi Government has started working towards execution of its huge plan to open Aam Aadmi Canteen for Delhi's poor. Aam Aadmi Party is dedicated to its ideology that their Govt. will work for poor citizens as much aas for other citizens. Every citizen pays taxes and getting support from the Govt is their right.
The planning for these canteens started last year itself. Initially around 24 such canteens will be opened where breakfast would cost Rs. 5 and lunch/dinner would cost Rs. 10. These will be opened at places such as Stations, Bus Terminals, etc. Rs. 10 crore were allocate for this. Going forward, Delhi Govt. is planning to open 200 such canteens for Delhi.

This summer, Mardini will be swimming for gold on the first-ever refugee team at the Rio 2016 Olympics. The new team will compete under a united flag representing the 20 million people worldwide who have fled from their homes.

Statement on the Homophobic Massacre of LGBTQI Community Members and Allies in Orlando
... In the great ancient religious and ethical traditions of humankind we find the directive: You shall not kill! Or in positive terms: Have respect for life! Let us reflect anew on the consequences of this ancient directive: All people have a right to life, safety, and the free development of personality insofar as they do not injure the rights of others. No one has the right physically to torture, injure, much less kill, any other human being. And no people, no state, no race, no religion has the right to hate, to discriminate against, to "cleanse," to exile, much less to liquidate a "foreign" minority which is different in behavior or holds different beliefs.

...Pablo Soto gave an example of a decision that would be impossible under the TTIP: Madrid city recently decided to municipalise all cemeteries so all citizens have a dignified place to rest. Then he bravely declared the City of Madrid TTIP free, to which Assange replied, "you better secede from Spain then." In other words, while cities can represent radical pockets of resistance, a huge amount of power still rests at the state and international levels.

Interpretative: Ideas — "What insights do we get?"
Decisional: Actions — "What should we do?"

Living Theory researchers have also sought to contribute to the growth and influence of Living Theory research as a social movement.

A journey in learning: My reflective account - by Neema Parekh
... I have used emails written to a friend and also to my mentor over a period of twelve years from 2004‐2016 to represent the emotional side of my learning and my reflections to represent the theories of my learning. Through my journey I wish to illustrate the need for Government teachers in India to become well informed of current practices and theories in education if we wish to understand the needs of our students, meet those needs and know how to create and sustain an atmosphere of care, trust and co-operation. I hope lessons learnt by me can be drawn on by other teachers so that they can make learning an enjoyable, stress-free experience for the children of rural India.

In Venezuela, the Elite Meet to Eat While the Masses Starve
A tiny percentage of the elites remain unaffected by the economic implosion
... The contrast was amplified when reporters from the tabloid approached golfers on one of the club's courses and asked them about the contrast. One of them said, "It's not that we don't care about the poor people. We give a lot to charity." And then, as an afterthought, he added: "Should we stop enjoying ourselves just because the country is burning?"
... The most productive part of the economy, extraction of oil and gas, for years provided the socialists in power with enough money to pay for all manner of social welfare schemes: houses, schools, infrastructure, and government office buildings. But when oil prices dropped, so did Maduro's cash flow.
... Food is so scarce that even the dogs are starving. Government price controls, often set below the cost of production, have left grocery store shelves empty.
... Venezuela's middle class has evaporated, leaving behind the vast majority living day-to-day through scavenging and barter. The elites, on the other hand, continue to live a lavish lifestyle, unaffected by the misery being experienced just a few miles away.

Islamic Speaker Admits: Killing Gays is a Belief Held by 'Moderate Muslims'
>> just posting this as a sharing of various perspectives!
...It has also been confirmed that just weeks before Omar Mateen's rampage, Muslim cleric Sheikh Farrokh Sekaleshfar called for gays to be executed during a sermon at an Orlando-area mosque. ... Sekaleshfar also called for homosexuals to be killed "out of compassion".
... With many gay people in America now asserting that they will switch their vote to Trump in light of Saturday night's massacre, it is imperative for the LGBT community to understand that the regressive left has chosen Islam over gay rights.
...During a conference held in May 2013, Qureshi complained that the media often frames views such as "the death penalty for homosexuals" or the subjugation of women as only being held by radical Muslims. ... "I always try to tell them that….these are general views that every Muslim actually has….every Muslim believes in these things," says Qureshi.

5 Reasons to Question the Official Story of the Orlando Shooting
... The FBI literally provided a mentally-ill man they helped plan a terrorist attack together with, an arsenal of deadly weapons – arresting him just before he committed his crime.
... While the right-wing media blames Muslims and the left-wing media blame guns, perhaps it would be more effective if thinking individuals would examine the possibilities that this attack was a false flag incident designed to push an agenda that would benefit those in power in some way or other. Out of this attack we will no doubt see another push for the evisceration of the Second Amendment and other civil liberties as well as increased hype regarding ISIS as a threat to the American way of life and a greater attempt at justification for foreign adventures.

British MP Jo Cox Murdered: Now Comes The Psyop
... "Create a killer? Take someone who's unstable, pump him up with SSRI antidepressants, fill his head full of ideas about violent action, point him in a desired direction, and stand back." (The Underground, Jon Rappoport)
... The man who is arrested, Thomas Mair, is alleged to have shouted "Britain First!" (Brexit) as he killed Cox. However, now witnesses on the scene are saying they heard no such thing.
... Here is the psyop formula:
MP Jo Cox wanted to remain in the EU. Her killer was a "Brexit right-wing crazy" who yelled "Britain First!" as he murdered her. Therefore, all people who want Brexit are right-wing crazies. Therefore, vote to remain in the EU.
This is how you demonize millions of people.
Jo Cox=good=remain in the EU. Her killer=leave the EU=all people who want to leave the EU are killers.
... Dr. Joseph Tarantolo is a psychiatrist in private practice in Washington DC. He is the former president of the Washington chapter of the American Society of Psychoanalytic Physicians. In a 1999 interview with me, Tarantolo stated: "All the SSRIs [including Prozac and Luvox] relieve the patient of feeling. He becomes less empathic, as in `I don't care as much,' which means `It's easier for me to harm you.' If a doctor treats someone who needs a great deal of strength just to think straight, and gives him one of these drugs, that could push him over the edge into violent behavior."

This should be achieved through new international law (a treaty), as well as through national laws and other measures.
... We are concerned about weapons that operate on their own without meaningful human control. The campaign seeks to prohibit taking the human 'out-of-the-loop' with respect to targeting and attack decisions on the battlefield.
... The Campaign to Stop Killer Robots has been established to provide a coordinated civil society response to the multiple challenges that fully autonomous weapons pose to humanity.

GT200: How London Sold Fake Bomb Detectors and Got People Killed
The UK proves that power and profits come before the lives of even its own allies' soldiers and police
>> An example of what's in store for India with foreign FDI in military sector unleashed
... Considering how humiliation is used by the Western media to portray anyone questioning the West's various narratives as "paranoid" or as "conspiracy theorists," one can only imagine the abuse one would be subjected to had they accused British ambassadors and British military sales support teams of selling what is essentially and empty plastic case with a disconnected radio antenna on it as a "bomb detector."
... Yet that is exactly what the British government did.
... Giles Paxman, then Britain's ambassador to Mexico, wrote to senior officials in the embattled state government to introduce the wares of Kent entrepreneur Gary Bolton, who was selling the GT200, a handheld detector supposedly capable of identifying drugs or explosives at up to 700 metres. Unbeknown to the ambassador, it used nothing more than a car aerial attached to a hollow plastic grip and did not work.
... Ambassador Paxman would, according to the Guardian, emphasize "the excellence of the UK's security industry." He would arrange meetings with officials across the country with the maker of the GT200, and is precisely why an otherwise unknown criminal was able to peddle his fake devices globally to the UK's various allies.
... The Independent would reveal that the device cost a mere 2 GBP to make, but was sold for as much as 15,000 GBP each.

BREXIT!!
http://www.veteranstoday.com/2016/06/24/brexit-nwo/
BREXIT victory shocks NWO – were "conspiracy theories" responsible?
... Prior to the emotion-stirring killing of "heroic anti-Brexit icon" Jo Cox by an apparent Brexit supporter, the polls showed the pro-Brexit side was significantly ahead. In the wake of the Cox murder, a huge swing occurred, putting anti-Brexit forces ahead 52-48% in polls taken on the eve of the vote. The elites who had arranged the false flag were presumably cackling and rubbing their hands in glee. What could possibly go wrong now?
... What went wrong was "conspiracy theories."
... Believing in "conspiracy theories," indeed giving them any credence at all, is wildly politically-incorrect, if not downright heretical, according to establishment ideology. So the very large number of voters who found the timing and style of the Cox murder suspicious would never admit that in a formal setting; on the contrary, when contacted by a pollster, they would be even more likely than before to misstate their intentions in the direction of pretending to be anti-Brexit.
... But in the privacy of the voting booth, people often go with their real thoughts and emotions.
